Emergency fire doors

Ensure your fire doors are fit for purpose

Fire doors are designed to have a higher resistance to fire and to reduce and slow down the spread of smoke and fire throughout a building. It is essential that they are made and fitted to the correct standard, which is where E K Fire Protection come in. Established in 1995 we are one of Kent’s leading specialists in fire safety.

​

Our experts are able to provide fire door inspections throughout Kent, helping to give business owners and landlords all-important peace of mind. Our DBS checked, NAFDI-certified specialists will attend your premises, inspect all fire doors and come back to you promptly with their findings. We can provide this as a standalone service or combine it with a more thorough fire risk assessment.

How often should my fire doors be checked?

It’s important for your fire doors to be routinely assessed: whilst infrequently used, you’ll want to ensure that they are fully functional should you ever need them. We advise you to get doors checked every 6 months.

An inspection of glazing, vision panels, smoke seals and intumescent strips, as well as the materials used in the door’s construction
